Summary: This paper proposes a color image segmentation method based on dynamic threshold neural networks, which simulate the spiking and dynamic threshold mechanisms of biological neurons. The method achieves regional growth and seed selection through the spiking mechanism and dynamic threshold, and controls the growth with local weights. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in color image segmentation.

Summary: The study introduces a new model of the RG algorithm based on tissue-like P system to address the high computational complexity and low performance issues of the conventional RG algorithm. Through the utilization of GPU and CUDA programming language, the proposed model achieves better performance with a speed-up of about 12.5x. Qualitative and quantitative evaluations demonstrate that the proposed method not only maintains overall segmentation accuracy but also performs better on images with complicated backgrounds.

Summary: Spiking neural P systems are an abstraction of the structure and function of nervous systems and neurons. SNP-WOD systems, a new class of these systems, remove the mechanism of duplication and allow for the amplification of pulses during the firing of spiking rules. These systems have computational properties and can generate numbers.

Summary: We propose a hypergraph-based numerical neural-like (HNN) P system, which contains five types of neurons to capture the high-order correlations among neuron structures. Additionally, three new communication mechanisms are introduced to handle numerical variables and functions. Experimental results on medical image segmentation demonstrate that the proposed HNN P system outperforms existing methods, showing its effectiveness in accurately segmenting tumors/organs.

Summary: Interactive image segmentation is a method that uses user input to accurately segment objects from the background. Current techniques are sensitive to the location and number of seed points, requiring users to repeat the process multiple times. This paper proposes a parallel fusion model using majority voting technique, which is more reliable and requires less user interaction. Evaluation and comparison with state-of-the-art methods demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed model.

Summary: This paper studies four basic arithmetic operations and improves the parallelization of addition and multiplication methods. It designs more effective SNPS for natural number addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division based on multiple subtractions. The proposed SNPS is verified to be effective through examples. Compared with similar SNPS, our system reduces the number of neurons used and the time overhead for addition operation by 50% and 33% respectively, and reduces the number of neurons used for multiplication operation by 40%.

Summary: This paper presents a comprehensive review of restoration and segmentation tasks in the medical field using deep learning techniques. The paper highlights the importance of these tasks, as restoration removes noise and segmentation extracts the specific regions of interest, both of which are crucial for accurate diagnosis and therapy. Various convolutional neural network architectures are explored, and promising results are achieved in terms of image quality improvement, noise and artifact suppression, as well as accurate segmentation of cell contours and brain tumors.
